Fabregas has a Wembley dream

Written by Jonathan Chong on Wednesday, January 7, 2009

Midfielder Francesc Fabregas has said that he has a dream to play at the new Wembley Stadium, and that alone is enough to spur him on for a speedy recovery.

The captain is pretty much ruled out for the rest of the season but insists that he is doing his best to recover as soon as possible.

But the Gunners actually have to make it to the final first ...

Fabregas said: "The FA Cup is a very prestigious tournament, one that everybody here wants to win, and that's what we will be trying to do.

"As far as I'm concerned we're always giving everything in this competition for ourselves, for the fans and the club. Maybe we left it a little bit last year, because we were in the semi-finals of the Carling Cup as well as everything else so we had a lot of options, but we are fighting strongly on other fronts this time around too and I'm sure we won't have the same outcome.

"The FA Cup is the first and only trophy that I have won here so far, so I really hope that when I come back we can be ready to play in a Semi Final, and then walking out at Wembley on May 30. But we will have to work hard and not take anything for granted if we want to get there."

I really like arsenal and it will my club forever but whats annoying me is that our coach thinks that having a degree in Economics he can apply that knowledge of Economics into the pitch such that we can win trophies. He should buy players and exprienced players. Now that he like young kids, what is benefiting from the kids. Worst of all he bring up the kids and when they are now experts he sells them away. Sight an example on Theo Walcott, Bently, Alinderi, Hoyet, Troare... this really bad, then why do you bring the kids then send them away? At end of the day he will be with no players. Arsenals failure this days are all due to Arsene Wengers bad hope and way of thinking... Am really sorry to say this.... But we need players. Am an African from Uganda.
